Anyone following this on the NFL Network. They're down to the top 10 next week. Something like this is always suggestive and can never be stated as fact but still interesting. This week they had Favre at #20. Seems fine to me but was surprised that Elway, and Marino were behind him. My guess for #1 is either Jim Brown or Joe Montana!

We don't get it on english t.v but I've been following it on NFL network I'm also going for jim brown as he retired in his prime as for the qb favre is better then Montana and John elway but brady is better then all and manning is going be higher then all which is a joke

At this rate, history will look less favorably on Favre and he will continue to slide down the "all-time-greatest" lists. Rightfully so, in my opinion.

I've loved it. Who cares what order there in. It's been a great ride.

I think I have nine of ten figured out for next week.

My guess is

1. Jerry Rice
2. Jim Brown
3. Lawrence Taylor

Then in no particular order I'm expecting

Joe Montana
Johnny Unitas
Peyton Manning
Walter Payton
Don Hutson
Reggie White

I can't figure out who No. 10 would be. Off the top of my head, the only real omission from the list has been Walter Jones. Easily one of the greatest tackles of all time and a first ballot Hall of Famer. Jonathan Odgen made the list and I think he's every bit as good as him.

I was looking at the full list trying to figure this out and I didn't see Butkus anywhere. You think he'll make top 10?

EDIT: Here's in interesting take on Hutson by Peter King

Q: In the book, you name the Top 100 players of all-time. Your No. 1 player is Don Hutson, the WR. How difficult is it to compare guys from the 30s and 60s to guys in the 1990s? Isnt it impossible because they are three completely different eras?

A: If you sat down and asked a very big baseball fan, who is the best baseball player of all-time? I dont know that hed say Babe Ruth, but hed be in the discussion. Whenever I say that I think the two best football players of all-time are Don Hutson and Otto Graham, people look at me like I have three heads. Im trying to respect history. Im trying to judge apples with apples. Otto Graham played 10 years of pro football. Seven of those years, he quarterbacked his team to the Championship. Seven of those 10 years, he was the leading passer in his league. You could argue about Joe Montana and say he played against better players and all that stuff, its a fine argument. But the thing that I cant understand is when people dismiss that when Don Hudson retired, when passing was a nascent thing when he retired, he had three times as many touchdowns as anybody else in the first 30 years, and twice as many receptions and yards. His touchdown record lasted until 1989. People totally dismiss that.

Its possible that if we compared everything and talked to people, that everybody, with the exception of me, would say that Jerry Rice is the best receiver of all-time. And quite possibly the best player of all-time. Thats fine. Thats why we all have opinions. I dont begrudge anybody their opinion. But to dismiss Don Hutson as possibly the greatest receiver of all-time would be the same thing as to dismiss the fact that Babe Ruth shouldnt be considered the greatest player of all-time. Or that Gordie Howe shouldnt be considered the greatest hockey player of all-time.

Has LaDainian Tomlinson been listed somewhere 11-100? If not, the thing is fucked up.
